1 Original Article Evaluation of In Vitro Anti-Oxidant, Anti- Nociceptive and Anti-Inflammatory properties of Desmodium gangeticum (L.) in Experimental Animal Models Manoj Kumar Sagar *, Kumud Upadhyaya College of Pharmacy, GyaniIndersingh Institute of professional studies, Dehradun, India ABSTRACT Address for Correspondence College of Pharmacy, GIS IPS, Massurri Road Dehradun Tel.: gmail.com The study was undertaken to evaluate the antioxidant activity of ethanolic extract of Desmodium gangeticum and compared with ascorbic acid (Standard) and the analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities in animal models. The extract has an anti-inflammatory effect demonstrated by its inhibitory effects on Carrageenan induced paw edema. Desmodium gangeticum leaves were studied indifferent models of inflammation in rats after oral administration at doses of 50, 100 and 200mg/kg. Desmodium gangeticum leaves significantly inhibited carrageenin, paw edema. It also produced significant increase in the hot plate reaction time in mice indicating analgesic effect. Anti-oxidant activity of ethanolic extracts of Desmodium gangeticum leaves was studied for its free radical scavenging property in different in vitro methods as 1, 1 diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl, nitric oxide, reducing power assay and hydrogen peroxide radical method. Different concentrations of ethanolic extract of DGE were prepared and evaluated by standard methods. The IC 50 values of ethanolic extract of DGE were compared with ascorbic acid (Standard) and it was noted that, the extract showed significant concentration dependent free radical scavenging property in all the methods. However this study therefore, supports its use in indigenous system of medicine both as analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent and calls for further investigations to elucidate its mechanism of action. Keywords: Desmodium gangeticum; Anti-inflammatory; Analgesic; indigenous system of medicine INTRODUCTION Desmodiumgangeticum (L.) DC. (family: Fabaceae) Commonly known as Shalparni is a small shrub of tropical region, which has been used in Indian system of American Journal of Phytomedicine and Clinical Therapeutics
2 medicine as a bitter tonic, febrifuge, digestive, anti-catarrhal, antiemetic; in inflammatory conditions of chest and various other inflammatory conditions 1. Though the roots the plant is one of the ingredients of popular Ayurvedic drug Dashmoola, a potent rejuvenating formulation used in Ayurveda. It is one of the constituents of Dashmoola which is used traditionally for treatment of a number of diseases like jaundice, rheumatism, puerperal fever, paralysis, edema, filaria and post-natal care to avoid secondary complications. It is also used as a dietary supplement 2. Aqueous extract of the plant root has also been shown to have hypocholesterolemic and antioxidant effects in isoproterenol induced myocardial infraction 3. The aqueous extracts of this species reported to have severe anti-writhing activity and moderate central nervous system (CNS) depressant activity 4. Total alkaloids of this species showed smooth muscle stimulant, anticholinesterase, CNS stimulant and depressant responses 5. The extracts of Desmodium gangeticum reported to have severe visceralleishmaniasis activity 6. MATERIALS AND METHODS Plant Material Fresh leaves of Desmodiumgangeticum were collected from their natural habitats in and around Dehradun. Shade dried at room temperature ( C) for days. The plants were authenticated by comparison with the herbarium and voucher specimen was lodged in the departmental herbarium of Botanical Research survey of India Dehradun (Voucher Spaceman BSD112718). Preparation of extract The dried powdered leaves (1 kg) were extracted with 90% ethanol in a soxhlet extractor respectively. The plant material was separated by filtration and ethanolic extract was concentrated (by Rotavapour, Büchi, Switzerland) and lyophilized to preserve it. The residue was obtained 18.2 gm. in ethanol. Dilutions of the extract were made in 2% gum acacia for the various studies. Preliminary Phytochemical Investigation Preliminary phytochemical screening of extracts was carried out to know the different constituents present in it as per the standard procedures Trease and Evans (1983) 7. The extracts were tested for alkaloids, sterols, glycosides, phenolic compounds, flavonoids, carbohydrates, saponins and fats. Isolation of Phytoconstituents Isolation of phytoconstituent was done by column chromatography. The lower end of the column was plugged with glass wool. Hexane was poured in to the glass wool to release the air bubbles, which might the tapped with the flat end of the packaging rod. The column was clamped in the vertical position. It was filled up to three fourth the length of the column after mixing the adsorbent (silica gel) in to a slurry with the solvent and pouring the mixture in the glass tube. The stopper at the lower end was opened and the solvent was run of until the level falls to about 1 cm above the adsorbent. After the adsorbent settled, a filter paper disc was placed. Dissolved about 5 gm. of ethyl acetate extract in solvent and concentrated it to 10 ml volume and added at the toped of the column by mean of pipette. Care was taken to ensure that it does not adhere to the wall of the column. The solvent was run off and sample was settled on the top of the column. Animals For anti-inflammatory activity Male Wistar rats ( g), kept in the Animal House at the College of pharmacy, GIS IPS, Dehradun (U.K.) was used. After procuring
3 the animals were acclimatized for 10 days under standard husbandry conditions, room temperature (27 0 ± 3 0 C), relative humidity (65 ± 10 %) and 12 hours light / dark cycle. They were allowed free access to standard dry pellet diet and water ad libitum under strict hygienic conditions. All the described procedure were reviewed and approved by the Institutional Animal Ethical Committee (Reg. No: 1145/A/2007/CPCSEA). Reagents and chemicals Nitro blue tetrazolium, Riboflavin, Meta phosphoric acid and all the solvents used in the study were of analytical grade and were procured from S D Fine Chemicals Limited, Mumbai, India. 1, 1 diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl, 2, 2 -azino-bis- (3- ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), Vitamin C, thiobarbituric acid, malondialdehyde and other chemicals were obtained from Sigma Chemical Company (St. Lousis, MO U.S.A). Carrageenan and Indomethacin were purchased from Hi-Media Laboratories, Mumbai, India. Water represents the double distilled water; standard orogastric cannula was used for the oral administration. Pharmacological Evaluation Anti-inflammatory study The anti-inflammatory effects of the extracts were assessed using the carrageenan and Acetic acid-induced writhing test models in rats. The animals used for each of the tests were divided into five groups with each group containing five rats. The control group (A) and the reference group (E) received normal saline (10 ml/kg) and indomethacin (5 mg/kg) respectively. While the test groups (DG 1, DG 2 and DG 3) were treated with 50, 100 and200 mg/kg of the extract, respectively. Saline, extract and indomethacin were all administered orally. Inflammation was produced by sub-plantar injection of 0.1 ml of 1% suspension of carrageenan with 2% gam acacia in normal saline, in the right hind paw of the rats, one hour after oral administration of the drugs (BDH; Winter.,et al1962). The standard reference group was treated orally with 100 mg/kg body weight of indomethacin aqueous solution while the control group was given normal saline. Measurement of paw size was carried out by wrapping a piece of cotton thread round the paw and the length of the thread corresponding to the paw circumference was determined using a meter rule (Hess and Miloning., 1972; Olajide.,et al 2000). Measurement was done immediately before and 1 5 h following carrageenan injection. The inhibitory activity was calculated according to the following formula 8. Percentage inhibition = (Ct C0) control (Ct Co) treated X 100 (Ct C0) control Where Ct = paw circumference at time t, C0 = paw circumference before carrageenan Injection and Ct Co = o edema. Analgesic activity Hot plate test The analgesic tests were by the hot plate test and the formalin-induced paw licking test. The hot plate latency assay was based on the method of Eddy 9. The extracts, saline and indomethacin were given to the animals orally after a 12 h fast. All the animals in each group were placed on a hot plate (maintained at 55±0.5 C). Reaction time was taken as the interval between the instant the animal reaches the hot plate till the moment the animal licks its forepaws or jumps out. Measurements were carried out 5 min before and 30, 90 and 150 minutes after oral administration of Desmodium gangeticum leaves crude suspension (500 mg/kg body weight). The control group was
4 given 1 ml normal saline while the standard reference group was treated with 1 ml (100 mg/kg body weight) aqueous solution of aspirin. Each result was calculated as the means of three readings. % potential = Drug latancy (Test)-Base line lantency (Control) Base line latency (Control) x 100 Formalin-induced paw licking tests The formalin-induced paw licking was studied in rats using the method of Hunskaar and Hole 10. In this method, 100 µl of 3% formalin was injected into the subcutaneous tissue on the planter surface of the left hind paw of rats 1 h after oral administration of the extracts, normal saline or indomethacin. The rats in groups DG 1, DG 2 and DG 3 were given oral doses of the extracts 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg respectively 1 h before formalin injection. The rats in groups E and A were given oral doses of indomethacin (5 mg/kg) and an equivalent amount of normal saline (10 ml/kg), respectively 1 h before the injection. The time spent on licking the injected paw by each rat was observed as soon (0 5 min, postinjection) as the formalin was injected and later (late phase min, post-injection). The mean of the time spent on licking the injected paw in each group was determined. In Vitro Antioxidant Activity DPPH Method DPPH scavenging activity was measured by the spectrophotometric method of Facino RM 11. Stock solution of DPPH (1.5 mg/ml in ethanol) was prepared such that 75 µl of it in 3 ml of ethanol gave an initial absorbance of Decrease in the absorbance in presence of sample extract at different concentration ( µg/ml) was noted after 15 min. IC 50 was calculated from % inhibition. Protocol for DPPH Free Radical Scavenging Activity Preparation of stock solution of test sample: 100 mg of extract was dissolved in 100 ml of ethanol to get 1000 µg/ml solution. Dilution of test solution: 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 µg/ml solution of test were prepared from stock solution. Preparation of DPPH solution: 15 mg of DPPH was dissolved in 10 ml of ethanol. The resulting solution was covered with aluminum foil to protect from light. Estimation of DPPH scavenging activity: 75 µl of DPPH solution was taken and the final volume was adjusted to 3 ml with ethanol, absorbance was taken immediately at 517 nm for control reading. 75 µl of DPPH and 50 µl of the test sample of different concentration were put in a series of volumetric flasks and final volume was adjusted to 3 ml with ethanol. Absorbance at zero time was taken in UV-Visible at 517 nm for each concentration. Final decrease in absorbance of DPPH with sample of different concentration was measured after 15 minute at 517 nm. Percentage inhibitions of DPPH radical by test compound were determined by the following formula. % Reduction = Control absorbance- Test absorbance x 100 Control absorbance Calculation of IC 50 value using graphical method. Reducing Power 12 The reducing power of the ethanolic extract of Ceasalpiniabonduc was determined according to the method of Oyaizu.
5 Accurately weighed 10 mg of the extract in 1 ml of distilled water were mixed in to the mixture of 2.5 ml of 0.2M phosphate buffer (ph 6.6) and 2.5 ml of 1% potassium ferricyanide. The mixture was then incubated at 50oC for 20 min. Following incubation, 2.5 ml of 10% trichloro acetic acid was added to the mixture, which was then centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min. The upper layer of the solution (2.5ml) was mixed with distilled water (2.5 ml) and FeCl3 (0.5 ml, 0.1 %) and the absorbance was measured at 517 nm. Increased absorbance of the reaction mixture indicated the increased reducing power. Assay for Nitric Oxide Scavenging Activity 13 The method was followed for the experiment, sodium nitroprusside (10 mm) in phosphate buffered saline was mixed with different concentrations of the extract dissolved in ethanol and incubated at room temperature for 2½ h. The same reaction without the sample but equivalent amount of ethanol served as control. After incubation period, 0.5 ml of Griess reagent was added. Absorbance of the chromophore formed was measured at 546 nm. Ascorbic acid was used as positive control. The procedure is based on the principle that, Sodium nitro prusside solution spontaneously generates nitric oxides, which reacts with oxygen to produce nitrite ions that can be estimated using Greiss reagent. Scavengers of nitric oxides compete with oxygen leading to reduce production of nitrite ions. Assay for Superoxide Radical Scavenging Activity 14 The assay for superoxide radical scavenging activity was performed as per standard procedure. The reion mixture contained 50 mm phosphate buffer (ph 7.6), 20 µg riboflavin, 12 mm EDTA and 0.1 mg/ml of NBT (nitro blue tetrazolium), all added in chronological sequence. Reaction was started by illuminating the reaction mixture containing different concentrations of the sample extract for 90 sec and then measuring the absorbance at 590nm. Ascorbic acid was taken as the positive standard. Statistical analysis Results are expressed as mean ± S.E.M. statistical evaluations were made using Statistical significance was determined using the Student s t-test. Values with P < 0.05 compared with control were considered significant. Data are represented as mean ± S.E.M. RESULTS The study of the acute antiinflammatory tests, the result show that oral pretreatment of animals with Desmodium gangeticum extract ( mg/kg body weight) and indomethacin (5 mg/kg) significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited carrageenaninduced paw oedema (Table 1). In the analgesic studies, the results from hot plate test show that at 30 min the oral doses of Desmodium gangeticum and indomethacin increases animal reaction time to from 6.7 ± 0.4 to 8.5 ± 0.7s likewise, at 60 and 90 min the reaction time were significantly increased compared to the control (Table 2). The formalin induced paw licking test, oral doses of Desmodium gangeticum extract and indomethacin decreased the time spenton licking (licking time) from ± 8.4 to 52.6 ± 3.0 sin the early phase after formalin injection. Similarly in the late phase after injection licking time was reduced from65.9 ± 10.6 to 35.2 ± 2.8 (Table 3). The free radical scavenging activity of the extract was examined in various in vitro models like, DPPH, NO, OH and lipid peroxidation was compared with the standards/ ascorbic acid. It was observed that ethanolic extract of Desmodiumgangeticum leaves had higher activity than that of leaves.
6 At a concentration of 0.5 mg/ml, the scavenging activity of ethanol extract of Desmodiumgangeticum leaves reached 53.89%. Though the DPPH radical scavenging abilities of the extract were less than those of ascorbic acid (98%) and Nitric Oxide and Super Oxide shows % Inhibition and at 1000µg/ml, the study showed that the extracts have the proton donating ability and could serve as free radical inhibitors or scavenging, acting possibly as primary antioxidants (Table 4 and 5). DISCUSSION Carrageenan-induced paw oedema shows that paw oedema was markedly inhibited by the oral administration of the extracts this is because carrageenan-induced paw oedema is an acute model of inflammation and has been reported to be active in detecting orally active antiinflammatory drugs 15. The analgesic properties of the extract were studied using two important laboratory models. These include the hot plate latency method and the formalin-induced paw licking method. The hot plate method is sensitive to strong analgesic 16. Excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) leads to a variety of pathological processes such as inflammation, diabetes, hepatic damage and cancer 17.The extract having the potentiality to scavenge the free radical contains flavonoids. Flavonoids have been reported to have anti-inflammatory, antiarthritic activity 18. In the analgesic studies, the results from hot plate test show that the oral doses of Desmodiumgangeticum and indomethacin increases animal reaction time were significantly increased compared to the control. The ability of the decoction of Desmodiumgangeticum in analgesic activity is may be due to the involvement of prostaglandins and other mediators in a different order of magnitudes. Oral doses of Desmodiumgangeticum extract and indomethacin decreased the time spenton licking (licking time). Additional investigations are required to find the biochemical way of pain modulation in order to describe the role of the aerial and root decoctions of Desmodiumgangeticum and its interaction with the sensory nerves. Thus, the results of present study prove the claims of Desmodiumgangeticum leaves mentioned in the Indian system of medicine. CONCLUSION The present investigation has shown that the leaf and stem extract of Desmodiumgangeticum have active phytochemicals. The ethanolic leaves extract fractions showed strong antioxidant and antiinflammatory properties were confirmed in the ethanol extract fractions. These activities may be due to strong occurrence of polyphenolic compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, phenols and Saponins. The antioxidant activity and antiinflammatory activity was comparable with standard ascorbic acid, Indomethacin and aspirin. These findings provide scientific evidence to support traditional medicinal uses and indicate a promising potential for the development of an analgesic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent from Desmodiumgangeticum plant. This medicinal plant by in vitro results appear as interesting and promising and may be effective as potential sources of novel analgesic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory drugs. REFERENCES 1.
